Grandpa's Potato Salad

- #50142
About time grandpa shared the recipe. A creamy and tangy salad with potatoes, hard-boiled eggs, and sweet onion. Try using homemade mayo for an even fresher tasting dish.
serves/makes:
ready in:
1-2 hrs
1-2 hrs
ingredients
8 medium boiled potatoes, cubed
1 medium sweet onion, chopped coarsely
4 cold hard boiled eggs, chopped coarsely
4 stalks celery, sliced thin
1/3 cup good quality mayonnaise
3/4 teaspoon dry mustard (to taste)
salad oil (I use canola)
2 teaspoons capers
directions
Combine dry mustard with mayonnaise and the mashed yolk of one of the hard boiled eggs, and add salad oil. Mix enough in, usually a tablespoon or two, to make it the texture that you can mix with the potatoes. Add capers to this and mix them in.
Mix the potato, chopped eggs, celery and onion, and add mayonnaise mixture. Mix gently but thoroughly, and chill for an hour or so before serving. Optional seasonings (omit capers) may include basil, dill or rosemary. You can use radishes or dill pickles for garnish, but it is best the way it is.

Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
This Italian cheese is so versatile that it can be used in both sweet and savory recipes from cheesecakes to lasagnas.
reviews & comments
looking at the picture of the potato salad it looks like radishes are in the bowl. I don't see radishes listed in the ingredients. anything else missing from grandpas potato salad? Looks good I want to make this
If you read the recipe you'll see the author mentions radishes as an option.
